MANDELA'S DAUGHTER WITH WINNIE, ZINDISWA: DEAD AT 59.
ICHEOKU says she once wrote “Dear Apartheid Apologists, your time is over. You will not rule again. We do not fear you. Finally #TheLandIsOurs.” With those words, Nelson and Winnie's daughter Zindiswa reinforced her position in South African politics as an unblemished heroine who is fully vested in the struggle against racist white people who foist apartheid on South Africa and still wants to maintain somewhat an indirect rule, dictate policies and economic stranglehold on the country. What a salvo.
Funny enough the same white people who traveled from Europe to South Africa and appropriated the peoples land had the effrontery to complain that "their" land was now being expropriated because the people want some of their land back. ICHEOKU says but who actually owns the land anyway, Europeans from Europe who came to the land or Africans in their native land who were placed there by God? White people are something else and they often times dish out the food which they won't eat themselves.
But unfortunately, she is now dead and with it the end of her contributions to South Africa's full emancipation and their effort to completely divorce themselves from its racist apartheid past which still haunts them till today. She was South Africa's ambassador to Denmark. Zindziswa was 59 years old and possibly died of coronavirus disease, although the South African government has not yet officially admitted it as the cause of her death. May her soul now rest. Adieu Zindi.
